Early Life and Education
Born in Lausanne, Switzerland, Radziwill was the only son of Lee Bouvier (younger sister of Jacqueline Kennedy) and Polish Prince Stanisław Radziwiłł. He married a former ABC colleague, Emmy Award-winning journalist Carole Ann Di Falco, on 27 August 1994 on Long Island, New York.
As a member of the Radziwills, one of Central Europe's best-known noble families, Anthony Radziwill was customarily accorded the title of Prince and styled His Serene Highness, although he never used it. He descended from King Friedrich Wilhelm I of Prussia, King George I of Great Britain, and King John III Sobieski of Poland. The family's vast hereditary fortune was lost during World War II, and Anthony's branch of the family emigrated to England, where they became British subjects.
Anthony Radziwill was raised Roman Catholic there; he attended Choate Rosemary Hall preparatory school in Wallingford, Connecticut, graduating in 1978. In 1982, he finished his studies at Boston University, earning a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism.
